Emperor Honghui looked at him with interest: "Oh? What's the matter?"
"My nephew has just gotten married. This trip may take a long time, so I want to take the princess with me."
This was not a big deal to Emperor Honghui, so he quickly agreed: "Okay, I suddenly remembered that I didn't give her a reward for the last hunt. I don't know what she likes."
Leng Moran thought of Xiao Xixi's appearance when he saw the banknotes and suggested, "Your Majesty, you might as well reward me with some gold and silver."
Emperor Honghui looked at him in surprise.
The explanation for the cold ink-dyed face that does not change its color: "There is no shortage of royal silks, satins, fabrics, jewelry, and clothes, and gold and silver are affordable."
Emperor Honghui couldn't help laughing twice, pointed at Leng Moran's nose, shook his head and sighed: "You kid, you are just trying to get money."
Leng Moran didn't explain and acquiesced with a smile.
Emperor Honghui graciously rewarded Xiao Xixi with two boxes full of gold, silver and jewelry.
Xiao Xixi's eyes lit up when she saw it. Unfortunately, it was a gift from the emperor and she couldn't exchange it for a silver note to use in the teahouse.
Seeing her full of regret, Leng Moran said: "..."
…
Xiao Xixi specially went back to Xiao Mansion to tell her family that she was leaving Beijing with Leng Moran.
The matter of finding the stronghold of the remnants of the previous dynasty could not be publicized, so she only said that it was an errand ordered by the emperor.
Mrs. Gu quickly ordered her servants to prepare some things for her, lest her daughter would be wronged when she went out.
Xiao Chongye already knew about the emperor's assassination in the hunting ground.
Although no one from the Xiao family went for this hunting, Xiao Zhongye was a military commander with military power after all, so this kind of news would not be hidden from him.
He advised his wife: "The prince takes our daughter with him when he goes out on errands, which shows that Xiao Yu has a very high status in the heart of the prince. The prince also cares about her, so how can he be willing to let her be wronged?"
Gu thought that this was indeed the truth, and she relaxed a little. She did not shed any more tears, but pulled Xiao Xixi to explain a lot of things.
He stayed with her and had lunch together.
When Xiao Jinbao heard that his aunt was leaving the capital, he stared at Xiao Xixi with a pair of big black grape-like eyes, and his expectation was almost written on his face.
"Can Jinbao go with aunt?"
Xiao Xixi smiled and rubbed his little head: "Jin Bao is still too young and can't go far away."
Xiao Jinbao pouted and lowered his head in disappointment. He quickly raised his head again and asked expectantly: "When Jinbao grows up to be as big as aunt, can he go out to play?"
"Of course, Jinbao can take your wife and children out to play together then."
Xiao Jinbao shook his little head: "Jinbao wants to take my aunt, mother, grandmother and sister to play together."
Xiao Dalang, who was standing aside, couldn't help coughing lightly and reminded his son: "Jinbao, aren't you taking dad with you?"
Xiao Jinbao blinked his clear eyes and said confidently: "Dad wants to work as an errand to earn money, so that Jinbao can take mother and the others out to play."
Xiao Dalang: "..." He is just a money box, right?
Mrs. Gu was also happy. She raised her hand and hit her eldest son on the shoulder, encouraging Xiao Jinbao: "Then grandma will be waiting."
Xiao Jinbao nodded fiercely: "Jinbao can definitely do it!"
Xiao Dalang wanted to retort that this child could only use his words. He was only five years old, who knew what the future would be like.
But feeling Gu's eyes as sharp as a knife, he swallowed his words silently.
Xiao Xixi rolled her eyes and said, "Jinbao, Jinwei, if my aunt comes across something interesting, she will buy it back for you."
Children all look forward to receiving gifts, she understands.
Xiao Jinbao immediately drummed his little fat tambourine loudly: "Auntie is the best to Jinbao!"
Xiao Xixi couldn't help but sigh. Her little niece was pretty, but she was too dull and didn't look like a child at all.
However, she was taking the route of being a lady, and it was indeed not something she could understand or interfere with.
Mrs. Si was able to develop her son to have an eclectic temperament, so naturally she would not deliberately restrain her daughter.
Xiao Xixi also understood that the Si family did not favor sons over daughters. If we really wanted to talk about it, only the original owner had the highest status in the entire Xiao family.
The reason why Jin Wei is like this is mostly due to his temperament.
Sure enough, some things are really innate.
The whole family had a nice lunch together. Xiao Xixi stayed for a while and then went back to Prince Yan's Mansion to pack her things.
What she brought back was the salute that Gu prepared for her.
Xiao Xixi is completely satisfied, and it’s good to have a few more cars!
…
On the day of departure, Xiao Xixi mysteriously pulled Leng Moran to show her the luggage she had prepared.
Leng Moran's face turned dark when he saw the boxes slowly stacked in Qingfengyuan.
Xiao Xixi couldn't help but laugh. If Leng Moran insisted on going with her, she would trick him!
"These are..." Leng Moran pretended not to understand.
Xiao Xixi explained: "They are all the luggage I want to bring. Some of them are prepared by my mother, some prepared by myself, and some sent by the sisters in the back house. Every piece is useful. For the comfort of this trip, I must
Bring them all."
Then, Xiao Xixi opened several representative boxes and introduced them to Leng Moran in detail.
"This is the handkerchief sachet specially embroidered by the sisters for me," Xiao Xixi blushed, "and the little clothes. We don't know how long it will take to go out, but we must be fully prepared."
"This box is a box of clothes that I sent someone to prepare. I won't say more in a day, but at least I need to change my clothes. I won't be able to bear it any longer."
As he spoke, he pretended to dislike himself.
It's not surprising for a noble lady in the capital to change her clothes two or three times a day. This is both reasonable and refreshing.
"This is a box of quilts, shoes and socks that my mother prepared for me. I need to sleep comfortably no matter where I am when I go out."
…
Leng Moran listened for a long time, but there was nothing prepared for him.
He couldn't help but ask with a dark face: "Where is my king's?"
"Ah?" Xiao Xixi blinked pretending to be confused, "Didn't the prince send someone to pack the luggage?"
Leng Moran didn't expect her to help pack things, but he was still a little unhappy after packing dozens of boxes so confidently.
Listening to this, he really wasn't prepared.
There were so many people in the house, but nothing was prepared for him.
Sure enough, it was right for him to take Xiao Xixi out with him. If he dared to keep her at home, she would truly become a prince.
Leng Moran's face turned even darker, and he said in a cold voice: "We only need two carriages to go out, and you can only bring five boxes of these things."
Xiao Xixi looked at him pitifully: "Can't you bring a few more boxes? These are all my thoughts."
"No, either I won't bring a box with me. I'll give you half an hour to pack it up."
After Leng Moran finished speaking, he walked out of Qingfengyuan without waiting for Xiao Xixi to say more.
